The Pro Standard. The Rico Legacy. Tony Ross Maddi (known in the professional ranks as Tony Ross) is the founder of Rico Baseball Gloves, a brand built on the "clinical precision" of professional service. The Professional Ascent Drafted by the Houston Astros out of HS in 1992, Tony’s journey was defined by virtù (excellence and drive). In 1995, his dominance earned him Midwest League All-Star honors with the Quad City River Bandits. He followed this as a player on the Double-A Texas League Championship Jackson Generals in 1996, playing with and against many future MLB stars. A Global Perspective Following his tenure with the Astros, Tony’s "strategic expansion" took him to the Italian Baseball League in 1999 and 2000. This international experience refined the "Pro-Mindset" that guides every stitch of Rico Baseball Gloves today. Mastery of the Mind and Body Before the pros, the foundation was pure athleticism and academic discipline. A dual-threat (All-State of Missouri pitcher with 1.75 era and position player) for the 1991 Missouri State Champion St. Pius X Warriors, Tony also established his credentials as the 1991 Missouri State High School Class 2A 100m Champion. He had a 100m dash time of 10.7 (personal best)—a time achieved on limited track experience due to his focus on the diamond. His commitment to mastery extended beyond the field, earning a Master of Education (M.Ed.) from the University of North Texas and a Bachelor of Science in Criminal Justice Administration from Park University. This combination of "battle-tested" pro experience and academic training is the DNA behind every Rico glove. The Rico Mission Today, Tony brings that "All-Star" standard to the next generation. Rico Baseball Gloves isn't just gear—it's thirty years of professional experience, handcrafted from the finest quality leather (kip, steer hide) with NO SYNTHETIC PARTS. We don't cut corners because the game doesn't forgive them. — Tony Ross Maddi Founder, Rico Baseball Gloves 1992 Houston Astros Draft Pick | 1995 All-Star | 1996 Texas League Champ M.Ed. (UNT) | B.S.
